Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • To assess the efficacy of up to 8 weeks of treatment with OFC versus olanzapine and fluoxetine monotherapies, in patients with recurrent MDD without psychotic features

  • who meet study criteria for TRD, as measured by last observation carried forward (LOCF) mean change from baseline to endpoint in the MADRS total score

  • Treatment-resistant depression will be defined as:historic failure to achieve satisfactory response to an antidepressant (other than fluoxetine) during the current MDD episode

  • when treated with an acceptable antidepressant drug and dose for at least 6 weeks

  • prospective failure to achieve a satisfactory response to fluoxetine monotherapy during the 8 week study lead-in phase

Secondary Outcomes (16)

  • To compare the efficacy, safety, and quality of life results of up to 8 weeks of OFC therapy(treatment phase) with fluoxetine and olanzapine monotherapies using the following assessments:

  • Onset of action as measured by time to achieve and initial response (greater than or equal to 25% reduction from baseline in MADRS total score

  • Efficacy in the treatment of co-morbid anxiety symptoms as measured by LOCF mean change from baseline to endpoint in Hamilton Psychiatric Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAM-A)total score

  • Study-defined response and remission rates including time to achieve a full response (defined as greater than or equal to 50% reduction in MADRS total score)

  • and time to achieve remission (defined as MADRS total score less than or equal to 10 at endpoint)

  • +11 more secondary outcomes

  • Patients must fulfill the criteria for recurrent MDD without psychotic features as defined by the DSM-IV, based on clinical assessment and confirmed by Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis I Disorders - Clinical Version (SCID-I) plus the Major Depressive Disorder Specifiers included in the Research Version of the SCID-I. This includes at least one of the following diagnoses: 296.31, 296.32, and 296.33
  • Female patients of childbearing potential must be using a medically accepted means of contraception throughout the course of the study. Use of any oral or injectable contraception must be initiated prior to visit 2

You may not qualify if:

  • Treatment with a drug within the last 30 days that has not received regulatory approval at the time of study entry
